I've never had any difficulty at all running any version of Puppy from a multisession DVD, but I don't save everything on the DVD. I just save things on the DVD that have to do with Puppy: mostly settings and small programs that I use a lot (such as tree). Other more general stuff I save on a USB flash drive that I leave plugged in but only mount when I want to use it.

Since I often switch Puppys to test the new ones, I've found that a configuration checklist would be a good idea so that I don't forget to change the obscure settings and install the programs I want. I need to start a wiki page for a checklist so that everyone can add to it.

I don't like to install large, rarely-used programs and then save them on the DVD. For me it's more convenient to keep them as .pets on the USB flash drive and install them when I want to use them. If a program requires a lot of configuration or fiddling with before I can use it, then I'll save it on the DVD.

Ditto.
